Flirts with double-double Claxton posted nine points (4-6 FG, 1-2 FT), nine rebounds and one steal over 27 minutes during Tuesday's 118-105 victory over the Rockets. Impact Claxton has seen his role diminish greatly since the acquisition of Andre Drummond, but the lefty big man still garners a sizable role off the bench and is capable of producing solid numbers. Over his last 12 appearances, the third-year center has averaged 9.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 blocks in 22.4 minutes per game. During that stretch, Claxton is shooting a ridiculous 75.0 percent from the field, but he's attempting just 5.7 shots per game.
